This card was meant to be for the Daring Cardmakers dare this week, I pressed on happily with it 'use three pattern papers' they said 'preferably from different ranges'. So I made the card, sat back and counted the pattern papers, two. Oh bummer. The little bird is a stamp I got from my Funky Hand DT mate Lythan in a swap.
I think it was another senior moment, oh no, I can't count up to three now. Yesterday, in an email to her design team, Regina referred to a senior moment. Senior? Have you seen that girl's photograph? No, senior is when, like me, you go shopping for food, and come home waving a bunch of parsley. Honestly, this happened yesterday, I forgot the sugar, tea, milk and bread, but it was a very nice bunch of parsley.
so what did you make with your parsley then Enfys? rofl
ReplyDeleteGreat card, a pity you didn't add the other paper!
Hee hee, what a cute story Enfys...I'm sure you'll do better next time...maybe a list would help! *wink* This is a very cute card...love the birdie! HUGS!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, Enfys! I can totally relate! I go to the store for milk and bread and come home with diapers and craft magazines instead! Then, the dh can't dunk his Oreos and all hell breaks loose! LOL! Those grandkids suck the brains right outta me!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Enfys! Love that bird!
ReplyDeleteYou sound like me. lol I am always trying to put the milk in the cabinet or the cereal in the fridge. lol
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this card, it is so me! The colors, layout, paper and stamp are all perfect. I have been dying to try Basic Grey paper, they have the best patterns and color combos. Super job!!
